I argue that a good hacker would be interested in these things. First, hackers care a lot about issues of justice, power and bias. Here people are being strangled on camera and their murderers are getting away with it. And, even the 'body cameras on all cops' idea we were clamoring for didn't help. That's a conversation we have to have: bodycams won't be helpful if America keeps on working this way.

Plus, how can we talk about wanting to have a 'diverse' Silicon Valley and ignore black people getting killed in the streets?
